Wisdom is often confused with knowledge, but there's a big difference. Knowledge involves the accumulation of facts. Wisdom is the ability to apply knowledge to achieve the best outcome. Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit, not a vegetable. Wisdom is knowing not to put a tomato in a fruit salad lol. In order to protect our minds from deception and confusion, we need the wisdom dispensed by God. And....its free!
When we pray, all we need to do is ask that He will give us wisdom and insight in every area of our lives. Now we must be sincere and consistent when we ask, use our faith to believe that he will provide, and wait for it to come to pass. I have found that many people don't have the patience to wait for God to work in their lives. Therefore, they get discouraged and go back to trying to fix it on their own. In Scripture, wisdom refers to knowing the course of action that will please God and make our lives what He wants them to be. Wisdom is acquired through our efforts to learn, grow, improve, and study God's word. It's not automatic, and it's not instantaneous.
God promises wisdom, He promises a way of life superior to the way of the world!
